If you want to do it in the professional way, it may ask you some equipments which is not the scope of this writing rastreo satelital.
But how can you track and align to the desired satellite yourself and save some money?First you should have the frequencies and other data of the channels you want to watch. What is required is frequency, symbol rate, FEC & Polarity. You can get this information on the net for free from a site like lyngsat.com.For that matter, recent receivers come up with all preset data of these channels and you don't need to search it on the net. You just enter setup/installation and choose one of the transponders given in the satellite. Make sure you have put the satellite dish antenna in place the lnb being connected to the receiver with the appropriate coaxial cable and the connectors on the both tips of the cable. After you make sure that everything is in place, press menu then select manual and not automatic scan in the installation sub menu. When you enter the manual scan there is a place you can see the signal status. Again some new receivers have this signal status on the front cover and some even have a beep sound that helps you find the satellite.After that go to the dish antenna and do something here. I am quite sure that there are many people using satellite television in your neighbourhood. watch the direction of the dish and try to bring your dish in that direction. Move about half centimeters and wait for 3 to 5 seconds till the signal shows up if it does not showup move again half centimeters and wait. If you spotted the position you will see the signal status on your TV. I have to warn you here that it is not a very easy task to find the correct position.If you are a newbie don't expect to do it in a few minutes. In the analogue satellite receiver time it was easy. Once you feed the frequency, you can "see" the channel when you are around the area of the position of the satellite. Then a little adjustments and you will see the channel clearly. But in the digital realm you shift the dish position a little and you will loose all the signal. So when you make the search for the position of the dish you have to move just a little and stop and see if the signal appears again move a little and wait till you can see the signal. You move you wait and see and again you move a little you wait and you see... you do this until the signal shows up on the TV screen.When the signal shows up you fine tune the position of the dish until you get optimum signal level. Then fix it on that position. Go to your receiver and get out of the manual and get into the auto scan mode. Then press okay on the remote of the receiver. The receiver scans and saves every channel in that satellite. This way you can do it yourself instead of hiring a professional. You can also use satellite tracking device that gives you bigger sound as you come close to the position of the satellite- if you can get if from a friend or if you can buy it cheap. This device makes your search a lot easier.I think this article gives you a little idea as to how one can find the location of the dish antenna search and save channels.
